Gameplay

Control your submarine and sink as many ships as possible. You can fire up to 4 torpedoes at the same time. They will slowly accelerate and will take some time to reload. There is a layer of indestructible obstacles (plastic floatsome) which will destroy your torpedoes and provide no points. Sunk ships provide more points the higher they are. Exceptions are:

  • high priority target (red mark) which yields double points

  • civilian target (green mark) which will deduct you 999 points

Ships also drop mines. If you get hit you will loose 555 points and be disabled for a few seconds.

STOP - pause the game

CTRL+STOP - end game and return to main screen
